I like how you keep missing the point that after the pricecut the x1 sales where the same as when they droped before may. On the contrary the wii u increased by a lot after mk8. You also keep ignoring that that wii u has 4-7 games exclusive(very diverse, for hardcore gamers and casuals) to the wii u coming  this year while the x1 has 3(non system sellers, catering to the same audince that already has a x1). And you keep ignoring that multyplat after multyplat sales go up to the ps4 by a lot while the x1 goes up a tiny margin. You also claim that a game coming out is suposed to increase sales more than a pricecut. That is complete bullshit, a pricecut always has more weight than a game, even if is one of their biggest. They both increased in over 200% sales compared to last month but the thing is that the x1 may numbers where complete crap so thats not saying much. And for the millionth time, outside the US the x1 is dead, wii u has been killing it since before mk8. In the upcoming months the x1 will decrease in popularity while the wii u will increase.

Huh? You seemed to be the one missing things here. Feb/March sales of X1 were higher becuase of TitanFall.  April/May Sales were both low.. As was Jan..  Feb/March were the only BIG months for X1 in 2014.   All other months were just around 100k. June was said to be just about 200k. So almost double. So sales were NOT the same AFTER the price drop. Which was only 3 weeks of June also. But other way.. sales DOUBLED. Doubled that of April and May. So it was not "the same as before May"... Wii U is said to have done 140k in June..  LESS then the X1.. even with being 200% more then June 2013.  And last.. the Xbox One DID NOT RECIEVE A REAL PRICECUT.  It is NOT the same system selling for LESS money. That is what a real price cut is. Several retailers had Titanfall bundle with Kinect not far behind the $399 console. Many X1 buyers still want Kinect.. and still pay $499. So again..  The X1 didn't recieve a price cut. It had something taken away. Not everyone wants that, as has been proven by GameStop and Amazon sales charts.

Super Smash Brothers can't even give a solid release date yet. Big Multi-plat games are NOT coming to the Wii U..  And the gamers that SSB entices likely bougt the Wii U for Mario Kart 8.  So there is NO big 2014 schdule of Wii U releases. Sorry. You woudlnt have headlines like "Nintendo Wii U release calender should fill Ninetendo fans with dread". Halo: MCC/Sunset Overdrive/GTA5/COD will all help X1 sales..

The X1 is not DEAD otuside the USA. Its barely released outside the North America. Still in just 13 markets until September. And I don't care what people say. MORE MARKETS MEANS MORE CONSOLES SOLD. Yes they are NOT key markets for the Xbox..   You can't compare APPLES to APPLES when its NOT the case. Yes. Xbox is not the global brands that PlayStation and Nintnedo are.. but some of the countries that X360 did sell decent in have NOT had their X1 release. The X1 will not have HUGE sales in those new markets.. but there will be SALES.. 

It might seem that it sold over twice, but remember that may consumers held off at buying the console for the new sku so you would need to average the sales to see the new standard wich would be around 130k, that is expected to be the average wich will diminish in july ad august due to having no games realising. I know its not a real pricecut, but does it matter? No. The percieved value of the x1 diminished by $100, its what consumers see so they think its a pricecut.

Smash has no date yet, all they said it was winter and we can count on it, unlike almost all other devs, nintendo does not build hype prematurly so if they say a date, they will most lkely keep it, only exception would be donkey kon than I can think off. So you think everyone that wants that game already has a wii u, but you dont seem to apply that logic to the x1, really!? a remake of game that all xbox fans have played and another shooter wich are both realesed betwen a bunch of multyplats, trust me thouse games will apeal to the people who already have the x1. I know that you only have your best wishes for the multyplats but if watchdogs and destiny thaught us anything is that people will not buy a x1 for a multyplat. Why would they? The ps4 is at price parity but the graphics are superior. Like how you disregard all other exclusive coming for the Wii U seing as how there are no games of thouse genres in the x1 or ps4 like bayoneta,sonic,skylanders,hyrule warriors. They might not be system sellers but each are unique to all other games in this generation so anybody looking for a close expirience would have to get the wii u, can you say that about the x1? No. What do they have? More shooters. The same type of games are coming to the x1 untill next year, late next year.

Keep telling yourself that the x1 is not dead ouside of the US. I think that for the last few months the wii u has beaten it outside the US. And thouse 13 countrys it realesed in where the only countrys the 360 made a little inpact. Why do you think it did not realesed in japan, one of the biggest markets? Because the 360 flop ther like in all thouse tier 2 countrys. So yes, therre will be more sales, but so insegnificant that it wont even register in the WW count.
